and saw that he was up against {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

"How cold is this!" Mueller exclaimed. "Two kings against two aces." Mueller's dismay turned to surprised jubilation on a flop of {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{2-Hearts}

{J-Spades}

. "Oh my god," he said. "The kid hits a two-outer one time." Mueller's set of kings held with a turn {7-Hearts}
